Dirty Swiss
On a train this week I picked up the latest issue of Via, the SBB free magazine.
The editor claims it would take 2,350 African elephants to clean up the 9,420 tons of rubbish left on Swiss trains annually.
Shocking figures!
I'm pretty sure a lot of those "elefants" are slacking off!!!

Pigs
So someone in work told me last week that there are more pigs than people in Canton St. Gallen.
I can believe this statistic.
Can't believe it came up in polite conversation though!!!

Got Bach?
So Heerbrugg in St Gallen plays classical music to keep young people away.
Surprised it has taken them this long to cotton on this trick.
The Swiss churches have been very effective at using this weapon against young people for many years!

Swiss quality
So Gaddafi had a Swiss bunker just like all of us in our houses. Bet the Tunisian and Egyptian leaders wish they had placed their trust in Swiss quality as provided by the Luwa firm 30 years ago - they might still be around if so.
Wonder if Gaddafi has to write in his wash days too?
